Seth Thomas Westminster Chime Legacy 8-day bracket mantel clock 

either needs to be wound all the way, or hasn't ben oiled in a long time, and is gummed up

Late reply, but the chime movement needs to be oiled, you need to take out the movement and put a drop of clock oil in each hole where the gear is. I’m no expert, but search up “how to oil a clock”

@IvanTimber thanks! Shortly after commenting I found a local clock guy and had it cleaned and it's been great ever since.

@@joetrolo7076 oh great to hear!

Winding holes to make the clock run

@@Urstvrlights what if you have a version with out? Are these clocks rare 2nd question. I tried manually winding the hands seemed to work.

XD obviously who can hate this

Steve Jordan - it depends on whether the hands are held in place with a nut or a pin. Basically you need to unscrew the nut or remove the pin, then the minute hand should pretty much fall off. The hour hand has a mini-shaft that fits along the stem that sticks through the dial.

Andrew Witkowski Ah cool

i have one too, but i cant figure out what the third key hole in the front is for. i know ones for the chime, and ones to power the movement inside, but whats the 3rd one for?

The front keyholes on this particular clock are: Time on the left Strike in the center Chime on the right. Strike is the hour and half hour notification, while Chime is the notes that are played every 15 minutes.
